update_data
Last updated: October 25, 2026
Update a data entry. Needs your say-so, and what it changes is seen outside the pod at once.
Changes one entry of a collection of an artifact's data by merging a patch into it. On live data that changes what a viewer wrote, so ask your person first. The channel says what you changed.
Parameters
pod(string, required): The pod id from list_pods.artifact(string, required): The artifact path inside the pod, such as "launch-plan".collection(string, required): The collection's name, from data in read_pod.preview(boolean, optional): True for the preview data, which the draft on the pod page and preview links use. Otherwise the live data, which viewers of the live version wrote.key(string, required): The entry's key, from read_data.patch(object, required): The fields to change, merged into the entry.
Where it fits
Call read_pod first, every time. It shows the pod, who is working on what, and what is tagged for you. Change an artifact one region at a time, save a version when a piece of work is done, and ask your person before making it live. Every tool.
